Ah! My bad. In that case, I guess you would need to "pipe" the output to another process which would actually implement the "wrap around" logic to a file. I don't know of any such program, off hand. Does the "Batch PIPES" product still exist? That might be easier to implement than doing it yourself using UNIX facilities. The main problem that I see is starting the UNIX receiver process when your program starts. Unless your program is a UNIX program, then it is rather simple to start up the "receiver" using shell piping. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
